The Syrian government and Kurdish-led forces have agreed on an immediate ceasefire on all fronts, Syrian state media reported on Sunday, after days of fighting as the army advanced into Kurdish-held territories in the northeast.
The deal stipulates merging all forces from the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces into the Syrian ministry of defence, similar to an initial agreement reached in March 2025 which was never implemented due to divisions.
Sunday's deal, which came after Syrian government forces and allied Arab tribal forces took swathes of territory in eastern Syria, includes handing over all rights to oil fields to Damascus.
